Thursday photo prompt There, long ago, when we had space, and the air was pure, there we lived: us, the whole tribe, the children, the very old, the wise and the fools. At night we were safe, the sea protected us. We had many friends, and few enemies. We were poor, and strong. The … Continue reading Threshold #writephoto

A quiet spirit #fivewords
Inspired by the Secret Keeper's weekly writing prompt#108 He kept seeing himself, in his youth, through dreams that did not have the shape of memories, in a role of a quiet spirit, an observer of his past life. Only near dawn, did the spirit at last morphed into himself, an old man lying in … Continue reading A quiet spirit #fivewords
Controversy #SaturdayPrompt
Inspired by https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/controversy/ "No, you won't do that, and as you well know, if you did, you'd be on your own!" The statement sounded pretty final, so I stayed silence: from then on I'd have to demonstrate I understood where I stood, in the order of things. And I did. So we are, in a state … Continue reading Controversy #SaturdayPrompt

Daily Prompt: Seven Wonders
Khalil Gibran once said that people will never understand one another unless language is reduced to seven words. What would your seven words be? Bread Love Mother Need Peace Sleep Water
Morning poetish thoughts and paint
A place to rest…
What heart yonder, falls
so gently in this field.
Soft as Lilly petals and
sweet as jasmine
On the vine.
Such gentle curves give
The soul a place to rest
The mind a place to race
And the heart a home all it’s own
With the voice of an angel
Does she call my name from
The night sky.
Scribed by stars with auroras
robe to warm her silken wings.
How can one smile
One gentle touch
Give the heart
Such murmur and rested peace

The chill of the morning air seems sharper here and I … Continue reading Daily Prompt: Too Big To Fail

"La liberté n'offre qu'une chance d'être meilleur, la servitude n'est que la certitude de devenir pire." ~ Albert Camus Perhaps one day - how far in the future is a matter for speculation - it will be suggested that parthenogenesis is the way forward for the human species on its way to the Stars. In … Continue reading #AtoZChallenge: April 26, 2013 ~ Women
